Re: Velobuild VB-R-168 Frame I ordered my R-168 in early May, received it mid May, built it up early June. 95% of the parts are from my old parts bin.
Shimano RS 685 Mechanical shifters and calipers
Shimano R7000 drivetrain
Ali special carbon seat
Ali special BB86 screw together with bearings changed out for NTN6805
Fulcrum Racing 400DB
Innova Facemiles
Build was relatively straight forward, used one foam tubing to house the 2 cables and hydro hose in the frame, easier than using seperate or cable ties, no rattle. I did have a small issue on the headset stem not compressing enough. I ghetto'd a 30mm ID 2mm washer and cut 80* out of it, sits on top of angled compression washer supplied and does not move and all 4 cables and hoses fit nicely through.
Overall not bad, no defects noted. Only one small gripe is the amount of toe overlap on this 52cm frame.
